It apears that crossover cable was wrong. I get the other one from
another source and after replacing cable everything worked. (Apparently
the repairmen who made the first cable wrongly connected the wires!)
Just for the record before getting the new cable I changed entry in
interfaces file to:
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.231.3
netmask 255.255.255.0

Thanks to everybody for they help (and I am going to pay a friendly visit
to man who sold me faulty cable...)
